71. Meticulous Trap
Upon reaching the ground floor, the two police officers led Glenn towards the front lobby, where a group of journalists had already gathered.The flashes from their cameras were so blinding that Glenn automatically closed his eyes and covered his face.'Have the journalists known beforehand? What's going on? Who is framing me?' Glenn wondered.Once outside, the two police officers deliberately stopped to give the journalists an opportunity to take pictures of Glenn.At that moment, from the corner of his eye, Glenn caught sight of Victor smirking in the dark side of the building. He couldn't be mistaken; he reaffirmed his vision and was certain it was Victor.Glenn believed this was Victor's doing; the man refused to accept defeat and didn't want to fall alone, so he had to take Glenn, too.After providing satisfying angles for the journalists, the two police officers then took Glenn to the police station.He was taken to the interrogation room, seated roughly with his hands handcuffe

72. Analysis
"Have you informed Lucas, Father?" Glenn asked Arthur after he turned off the television.He fed up seeing the fake smile from the serpent.Arthur shook his head, "But I haven't canceled it either. For now, we need to make sure he doesn't depend on Evo Pharma so that he can't be exploited as they pleased," he explained.Glenn nodded in agreement."Ack! I can't trace him," Rufus grumbled from the dining table, concentrating on finding Company X, which was selling a large amount of Smith Corp shares. However, it seemed like he was having difficulties.Glenn thought for a moment, "Do you know Victor's brother? Vincent? I think, for strategic matters like this, he's the brains. Don't approach it based on Victor, but do it from his brother's perspective," Glenn suggested to Rufus.Rufus's face brightened, agreeing with Glenn's advice that renewed his enthusiasm. Earlier, he had felt desperate because Victor's habits led to a dead end.Since Victor and his brother had completely different a

73. Overwhelmed
"Look, what will happen if I entrust you to him, you will end up being used, then after becoming useless, you will be discarded or even worse, 'eliminated’ exactly like what his father did to me. He couldn't accept his son being rejected, so he sought revenge by taking away all my partners.""Now his reputation is in ruins; he deliberately returns all my partners, maybe hoping I would be grateful and back him up. Tsk, not a chance!" Mr Lucas grumbled while pointing at the television broadcasting news about Glenn.Hazel ignored her Dad's scolding, still concentrating on listening to Glenn's news. She was confident that Glenn wouldn't be so arrogant as to take someone’s life just to get what he wanted. In fact, that attitude was more fitting for someone else...A long sigh from Miriam was heard, and Hazel saw her mom's face trying to contain frustration while peeling an apple for her husband."Why? I don't understand why you defend a young man who is clearly wrong like this?!" Mr Luca

74. Request
"Welcome back, Mr Roesli. You truly understand if the world still needs you," Victor Davis greeted with his fake wide smile.Roesli stared at Victor with his still blurry vision, immediately sensing that the young man in front of him was no better off than he was.'He can't be trusted; his tongue is forked like a snake,' Roesli thought to himself."What do you want?" he asked skeptically.If the young man in front of him was too naive to think he would welcome his 'good intentions,' then he was not worthy of being valuable in his eyes. He didn't believe in superficial things like that.For him, naivety and foolishness were one and the same."Well, the response I hoped for from you, Mr Roesli. Straight to the point, no beating around the bush, strict to business, right?" Victor, who was standing before, now walked towards the waiting chair and sat there beside Roesli's bed. Roesli's peripheral vision followed the young man's movements."Stop the small talk and get to the point; my he

75. Elaborate
"When will I get my share?" Melanie asked Victor while sipping her martini.Victor was engrossed in the files he received from Roesli and focused on his work, but Melanie was distracting him."Quiet, I told you that you'll get it if your appeal for the patent is successful.""But I need money now; raising a child is not easy, you know," Melanie replied casually, her long legs crossed as she sat with her smooth thighs exposed.‘If you knew the weight of that responsibility, at least try to be sober,’ Victor remarked, glancing disapprovingly at Melanie's third martini; he disliked seductive women like her.He wondered how Melanie managed to become a teaching assistant but eventually concluded that even Professor Agust's class wasn't immune to a man's primal instincts."How much do you need? I hope you'll disappear once you have the money," Victor sneered, grabbing a check and preparing to write the amount Melanie requested.Melanie's eyes widened impatiently as she quickly finished her

76. True to His Words
"Ahaha... You must be so desperate to accuse others, don't throw your mistakes onto others, young master," mocked Melanie with her title, as if it were part of a joke.She folded her arms across her chest and shifted in her stance."Why do you seem nervous, Melanie? Do you know why I am so confident in accusing you? Because I know I am innocent... And if you've forgotten, I was there talking to Alyssa, and she mentioned meeting someone... She even prepared her favorite chamomile tea specifically for you," Glenn said with a smirk, his sharp eyes seemingly able to read Melanie's thoughts, waiting for her to fall into his trap."You mean green tea? Well, regardless, you're wrong to accuse me," Melanie confidently rejected Glenn’s accusations.Glenn's smirk widened."Oh my... Melanie, how do you know it was green tea she served if you were never there?" Glenn cornered her.Melanie's eyes widened, reflecting her attempt to retract Glenn's statement. She didn't expect that Glenn did it inte

77. Retaliate
"The murder suspect in the late Mrs Alyssa Hover's case is Melanie Rigis, who has been found to have forged her marriage certificate with Agust Hover. It turns out their child is also not biologically related to the late Mr Agust Hover.Therefore, the patent rights for the tranquillizer drug Soulcatcher remain with Alyssa Hover, who granted mass production permission to Smith Corp based on the last signed letter by the late Alyssa Hover as the legitimate and sole heir of the drug.Meanwhile, the murder suspect, Melanie Rigis, is missing and being sought by the police. Residents who encounter a woman with the following characteristics should report it to the police."The news report echoed, and the television screen displayed a full portrait of Melanie. Glenn turned off the TV with the remote and took a relieved breath. His instincts told him that Victor had taken care of Melanie, but he didn't have enough evidence to accuse the snake-like man.For now, he was satisfied with the prog

78. Trusts
"Look, Victor is already in action," Rufus pointed to his laptop screen. Glenn headed to the chirping bird social media platform that Victor often used to incite with his invalid information. This time, Glenn and Rufus fell silent, reading the uploaded copy of the document that looked authentic with furrowed brows and seriousness. After a silence that lasted for ten minutes, Glenn finally spoke up. "Is this valid?!" he asked Rufus, tilting his head and looking at Rufus, who was still sitting on the living room sofa. Rufus was equally surprised as Glenn, "Woah... Wait, I can't answer that, I need to ask Dad first. I've never seen this document before, but I think it's probably because the matter has been settled. Hmm... Whatever it is, I need to meet Dad first," Rufus excused himself. Appearing hurried, he stood up and packed his things, "I told you to just go straight to confront that snake's backside," Rufus complained irritably to Glenn. "There will be a time... If I follow yo

79. Escape
"Dad, look at what's going viral today," Hazel greeted her dad as she approached him, who had just been brought home and gathered with Miriam.Everything felt normal, and Mr Lucas had never been happier with the normalcy. Now, he looked at Hazel and Miriam with a fresh perspective. Normalcy was a blessing, and he didn't want to exchange it for baseless hatred anymore.Mr Lucas placed a teaspoon in his hand and paid attention to what his daughter was reporting. His eyebrows immediately furrowed as he read it, asking Hazel to hand him the tablet so he could examine it more closely."Does Dad know about this?" Hazel asked curiously."Yes..." her dad replied with his eyes still fixed on the tablet screen, which surprised Hazel because earlier he had just answered casually."So... Does that mean Dad will also be implicated in that murder?" Hazel asked with concern. Learning from recent events, at least if someone were to involve her dad, the family should be prepared this time."I even fo

80. Deceived
Everyone in the room was startled upon hearing the news."Dad, where do you think he's headed?" Hazel asked her Dad with concern.She still remembered the tense moments when she and Aunt Irina were detained and pushed out of the helicopter towards the heavily burning building.Unconsciously, Hazel rubbed her shoulders, dispelling the sudden shiver. A hand squeezed her shoulder, and she turned around, finding it to be Glenn.The shiver turned into a warm throb, making her feel comfortable and calm. Glenn's grip on her shoulder seemed to signal that she didn't need to worry because he would always be by her side to protect her."How strange... Hasn't he been paralyzed almost all over his body? How could he escape? And besides, isn't there always a police officer guarding his hospital room?" Miriam asked. The same thoughts crossed the minds of the others."He has many accomplices who can help him, Aunt," Glenn replied.Mr Lucas glanced at where Glenn's hand was, but this time, he didn't
